Svea Mining AB, a Swedish mineral exploration company, has completed the first phase of its field exploration program at the Kalvträsk and Stöverfors projects in Northern Sweden. The company is focused on discovering and developing gold, copper, and silver deposits within the historic Skellefteå Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) district.

This program represents Svea Mining's inaugural systematic exploration using modern methods across its property package. All soil, rock, and grab samples collected during the program have now been submitted to an accredited third-party laboratory for analysis. Results are anticipated ahead of a planned drill program.

The field program included systematic soil sampling along defined grids, collection of rock chip and grab samples from outcrops and mineralized float, and geological mapping. Activities were designed to identify potential gold, copper, and silver mineralization based on soil geochemistry and historical findings.

Svea Mining holds exploration permits for Kalvträsk (approximately 7,000 hectares) and Stöverfors (451.93 hectares) from the Swedish Mining Inspectorate. The Skellefteå region has a long history of copper and gold production, and Svea Mining believes its location offers significant exploration potential. The increasing demand for metals like copper and silver, driven by advancements in AI and defense, makes the timing favorable for the company's objectives.
